Sleep researchers have found that people can make themselves wake up
at a given time simply by
deciding to do so before they go to sleep. Scientists took two groups of volunteers and, at nightfall,
told one group that they would be woken at 6 a.m. and the other that they would be woken at 9 a.m.
The sleepers' levels of the hormone adrenocorticotropin, which is known to cause spontaneous
awakening, were then measured. In each group, there was a rise in the levels of the hormone one hour
before the volunteers expected to get up. The three -hour difference between the rise in hormones in
the two groups suggests that the body can be programmed to wake up on command.
